Satisfy Your Cravings with Simple Vanilla Chia Pudding
Indulge in this Vanilla Chia Pudding, a quick and wholesome dessert made with just four ingredients.
Equipment
- bowl
- Whisk
- Refrigerator
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup chia seeds These tiny powerhouses thicken the pudding and are packed with omega-3 fatty acids and fiber.
- 1 cup non-dairy milk Almond milk or any preferred plant-based milk.
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Pure vanilla extract or a vanilla bean adds flavor.
- 2 tablespoons sweetener Adjust based on taste; options include maple syrup or agave.
Instructions
- In a bowl or container, mix chia seeds, non-dairy milk, vanilla extract, and sweetener thoroughly until well blended and smooth.
- Let this mixture rest for about 5 minutes, then stir again. Repeat after another 5 minutes to keep the chia seeds from clumping.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours, or until it attains a lovely pudding-like consistency.
- Spoon the creamy pudding into bowls and adorn it with your choice of fresh fruits and crunchy granola to add flair and nutrition.
Notes
For an extra touch of sweetness, drizzle with honey or maple syrup before serving. Stirring periodically helps prevent clumping of chia seeds. Use mason jars for easy mixing and storage.
